"Federal Judge Thelton Henderson, in the case Earth Island Institute v. Secretary of Commerce Donald Evans, noted that the US Commerce Department's weakening of the "Dolphin-safe" label on tuna cans illegally ignored scientific evidence and must be overturned. He ordered the issuance of a new rule prohibiting the use of a "Dolphin-safe" label on any tuna products caught by netting dolphins." - excerpt from the article at http://www.enn.com/direct/display-release-m.asp?objid=%7C%7CD1D1366D000000FE4998DC6C00A94036
